2 more weeks has passed faster then I imagine. I am totally focused on my studies. Besides Latin, that's for sure.Exams will start soon and I have to be prepare. If I get just one B, my mom will strangle me. To be honest, she would do me a favour. I don't want to live anymore, I don't have strength nor reason. Well, besides medicine.Oh who am I kidding? I didn't studied at all and now, I have to do all of that in 2 days. Weekend is my only chance to learn all materials if I want to pass my exams. If mom find out that I'm sleeping, she will murder me. And not in that simple, with less pain way. No, she will do it slowly and painful. Very painful."If you are thinking of that jerk again, I swear to God I will pu-""No. I'm thinking about my mom." I interrupted Hannah before she could say she will punch me. She did that a few times this week. Since I had a "moment" with Mike in the classroom, she keeps punching me every time she finds out I'm
"John? What are you doing here?" I asked him with my eyes opened widely as I approached him. I lost Hannah somewhere along my way to John but I think she managed on her own."You look surprised." John gave me a small husky smile and a tiny wink. Adorable, just like in the old days."You think?" I exclaimed as I gently punched him on his left shoulder. I was surprised that he shown here, but in a good way. Though, I couldn't connect the dots with who he came. I think he doesn't know any of my college friends, I mean, they are far away from my home. Our home. "I came with Nadia." He said nonchalantly. I couldn't admit myself that, but I think I froze a bit. He came with a girl? He saw my surprised face and he smiled widely. I could tell he's enjoying this."Cool." I tried to stay calm but something inside me was nervous. Who's that girl? And where is he now? Ugh, why am I even thinking about it now? I don't care. "Where the hell is Hann?"
"Excuse me." I said walking by George, some guys and finally by John. He was looking at me with a wide smile but when he saw how pissed I am, he lowered his look acting all serious. I rolled my eyes and angrily walked inside, in the house."Jess?" I heard a familiar voice behind me. Oh thank God!"Hannah!" I said, as I sighed in relief. I grabbed her hands and started walking towards big, brown doors. I didn't know where I'm going, I just wanted to get away from amused looks."What happened out there?" Hannah asked me as we entered Alan's bathroom. For a moment, I let her hand go just to admire another piece of his house. His bathroom was like my entire living room, maybe half of my kitchen too! All in perfect shape, in perfect angles, covered with marble and stone. So cold and strict architecture but, in surprise, it felt warm from a small, glassed chandelier which made this room very romantic, letting a small amount of light outside. This room would
Mike.How did I come to this?How did I let him in my heart?Why?I was a normal girl, average looking medicine student who's spending all her free time with her face in the books because her mother is a genius freak with no emotions. Not exactly first choice for a rich business man, slash, Latin professor with a gorgeous wife and a 4 year old kid. After meeting him, my life turned upside down. I never thought I would be some dirty mistress of some business man or a secret girlfriend of her professor.Damn, when I think about it, I sound like a slut. I'm not a slut. Believe me. I hate cheating and I hate those who cheats. Like John. Ugh, John. What will I do with him?“Jess?” Hannah gently knocked on my bedroom door, slowly leaning inside.“Yes?” I raised my head slowly, confused by her gesture. She was never quiet, nor gentle. “Oh, it's you.” I said, as I sighed.“Oh, so
“Why are you quiet?” Mike asked me after a few moments. I was still shocked.“Why?” I asked quietly. “Why now? Why after all this time?” I looked at him and sighed. He closed his eyes for a moment and clenched his jaw. He is so hot when he does that!“She slapped Peter.” He said barely audible, but you could hear angriness in his voice. I reflexively looked at Peter. He was looking down, sadly. My heart melted instantly.“Oh Peter…” I reached my hand to touch his shoulder and he looked at me with those beautiful big blue eyes and smiled weakly.“I'm ok miss.” He said nervously.“You can call me Jess.” I smiled widely to him, kissing him on a cheek. Mike looked at me surprised but I saw sparkles in his eyes. Peter started chuckling and my heart was instantly filled with strange feeling. I'm already loving this boy!“How could she?” I looked at Mike seriously. He shook his head in disapproval then looked at me.
“What are we now?” Mike asked me as he buttoned the last button on his perfectly white shirt. I sighed deeply saying goodbye to his naked torso again.“You tell me.” I said repairing my hair. Slut.My conscience was looking at me angrily. I know I will have to deal with her later when I'm alone. Maybe this all sounds a little bit slutty, ok, I admit. But I couldn't help it, I… I love him.“I know one thing, though.” Mike came closer after he put on last piece of his black Armani suit. He gently kissed me on my forehead and for a second, he caressed my cheek. “I love you Jessica Miller.” He winked huskily, making me blush like a red tomato. “Stop it!” I punch him in his strong shoulder playfully, making him giggle. He is so adorable when he's acting like 17 year old! It's like, he forget about his rich parents, his age, his devil wife, everything. So cute!“What, you don't love me?” He tried to act all serious and hurt but he started smiling widely. I
“Baby…Wake up!” Mike kissed me on my forehead very slowly and gently. I moaned lazily, not wanting to open my eyes yet. We fell asleep late last night. Hannah, Mike, me and Peter were playing cards and then after that, Mike, me and Peter slept at the same bed with Peter in the middle. A picture of him and Mike sleeping so peacefully and perfectly will be forever in my heart!“Where is Peter?” I said as I looked and I couldn't find this precious angel beside me. Mike smiled lightly.“In Hannah's room.” He winked. I looked at him puzzled but he just smiled. “He stood up early and he heard Hannah is already up. He said he will go to sleep there so we can kiss together!” He said smiling huskily. I felt redness on my cheeks, as he winked again!“I am shocked!” I said smiling. “Hannah with a kid.” I started laughing, slowly getting up.“I thought we will kiss now…” Mike started acting like he's sad and hurt so I got up, came on his side o
“Oh my God, baby!” I heard a familiar voice near me but I couldn't opened my eyes. My senses was getting harder, I could smell Lilies in my room and I could hear voices. “Last time she ate? Did she even had something in her mouth today? Food related?” This familiar voice was getting louder and louder. Oh my…Daddy's here!“Daddy?” I said weakly, barely audible. I opened my eyes slowly and first thing I saw was a few shades. First man-figure was strong, almost bald, and a little older. Second man-figure was stronger than the first one, perfectly shaped. Mike. Third must be Hannah and that small figure was Peter. “She's awake!” That first figure came really close, starting to kiss me on my forehead and then both of my cheeks. I moaned. Daddy for sure. I rubbed my eyes so my sight can be even better. I tried to sit down but I felt pain near my ribs. Oh yea, the wound.“You better stay in bed. You're safe there.” Hannah said teas
"What the hell?" Hannah repeated herself because we ignored her the first time."What are you doing here?" I asked him, narrowing my eyes, still ignoring Hannah."Well, since you're not answering me, I came to make sure my girlfriend is still alive." Mike said coldly, clenching his jaw."As you see, I am so..." Filled with anger, I rolled my eyes."Can we talk?" He asked, slowly yet strongly grabbing my arm. I flinched, feeling pain. Hannah was just standing there, confused as she can be."Not a place or time Mike." I said firmly but I was visibly scared and that annoyed me. I shouldn't be afraid of him, I don't have a reason for that. Right?"Something happened?" He asked me, now looking genuinely concerned and confused. Then it hit me. He doesn't have a clue that I overheard his conversation. How could I be so stupid and let my emotions get the best of me?"We will talk later okay?" I said as my face softened. He looked at me, one eyebrow up, still mad. He growled under his voice an
"Sleepyhead..." I heard a soft voice near me. Air smelled like our toothpaste and mix of herbs from Hannah's shampoo. Although I smiled lightly, knowing it was her, I still didn't want to wake up."Nooo..." I whined and turned on the other side. Hannah smiled and leaned on me, sighing deeply."When did you even got home last night?" She asked, still on my body. I moaned, not happy with that. "I know what will make you got up." She said, slowly getting up. I moaned again, feeling lighter and relieved that I can just roll over on the other side of my bed, completely ignoring her. Realizing it wasn't the smartest move as she grabbed my legs and started pulling me out, I started laughing."Stoooop, leave me in peace!" I managed to mumble as she continued to pull me up. I tried to budge but I couldn't. How the hell is she so strong?!"I got engaged!" Hannah exclaimed, finally letting me go."What?!" I lifted my head so rapidly, the whole room started spinning! She was screaming and jumping
My head was at the verge of blowing up like the ones in cartoons. There was too much information I needed to cope, too deafening sounds, everything was spinning. Me, the room, everything! I felt numb and over-touched, cranky, mad, all feelings you could think of and none of them in the same time. I didn't even knew until now that that's possible.My shift ended vaguely, honestly I'm happy I didn't kill anybody! All I could think is how I will eventually go home and tell Hannah everything what was heavy on my crazy noggin.Darla didn't say anything for the rest of our shift. I could only imagine what's in her head now, poor girl...I got a text from Hannah asking if I'm ready for our date night. I was more then ready but I wanted to do one more thing before I head home."Hi you..." John's head lifted up when he saw me entering his room. "Did I woke you up?" I asked, carefully closing the door. I stood by them as my legs wouldn't let me come closer to him for some reason."I won't bite
"What the hell is going on?!" I yelled a little bit louder than I expected. Few doctors that was passing by with patients looked at me concerned. I brushed it off. Soon enough, my mom will hear about this, but I can't deal with this now."Dr.Miller." Veronica called my name in so calming voice, my anger vanished in thin air. I slowly turned around. She looked at me, smiling acidly, slightly tilting her head."I'm sorry." I said to her. She didn't say anything, she just shrugged her shoulders and smiled. I felt bad for not knowing how to control. "Let's continue this in my office, shall we?" I asked, faking a smile and politeness so we don't draw any more attention. I felt eyes all over me as patients and hospital staff were suddenly walking slowly, trying to catch a glimpse of our conversation. Miller's daughter causing the drama. Big news. Darla and Delia both started walking behind me as I tried to go into my office as soon as possible. My head was spinning really fast and I felt l
"She is fine!" Mr.Bhat said after he stopped hugging us. "She is fine thanks to you doctor Miller and you doctor Care." He said, closing his palms and bowing to us. Ann's surname is Care? Why does that sounds familiar? I quickly brushed off that for now, I can't be dealing with that too. I smiled politely to Mr.Bhat, bowing to him, as he did to us."You don't have to thank us for that Mr.Bhat, we did our best." I said firmly. I was so proud of myself, so fulfilled, so good about myself! We saved that girl's life! "She is sleeping now." Mr.Bhat said, approaching Ada's bed. He slowly and gently caressed her hair and smiled. He looked peaceful. "You don't need to wake her up, we will just do a little checkup." I said as I grabbed a pen out of my uniform. I checked her temperature, it was 36.6 Celsius which is quite normal. Excellent."She may feel dizzy or groggy as she come around from general anaesthetic." I said to him, caressing her hand. "We will check her blood pressure regularly.
"I'm sorry I'm late." Darla quickly came beside me after Dr.Stepford and me started walking towards Nina's room. I rolled my eyes when I looked at her but I didn't want to say anything."Dr.Miller?" Dr.Stepford raised his glasses while we walked and looked me dead serious. "Are you going to let your intern be late?" He smirked. "I want 20 pages on AIDS research. By tomorrow morning." I stated seriously. Dr.Stepford chuckle a bit, sounding like a teenage girl. I bet he was amused by this as he probably remembered some of my mom's situation again and how much I do look like her. I smiled to myself and I was proud how I quickly got an idea for Darla's punishment but I put on my straight face instantly. Darla didn't say anything, she was probably too scared.I promise I won't be so hard on her once she toughen up a bit. She can't be soft, not on Pediatric, let alone Pediatric surgery. In Africa, I had a resident who was so strict, my hair would go up when I remember her. But she was fair
We kept walking until she stopped us in front of the door, right next to John's room. What is her plan? We will easdrop? I hope not! Hannah looked at both directions and slowly opened the door in front of us. I was confused."What are you doing?" I whispered to Hannah, hoping she will hear me. She just smiled and continue with her plan. We entered a patient's room, an old lady seemed to be sleeping. I looked puzzled as I was looking around her room, trying to figure out Hannah's thoughts. Hannah turned over to me and rolled her eyes."This is Elenore. She is in a coma. Come." She said that bluntly, like we do that on our daily basis, like this, whatever this is is normal."Hannah." I exclaimed quietly, yet strongly enough for her to stop. She looked at me again, now confused like I'm the one who's crazy. I couldn't help but smile."She won't hear us, what?!" She asked, opening her arms towards me in isn't-it-obvious way. I shook my head and smiled. I might just let go all my question
I went to the park. I managed to stay calm and cool long enough so I can walk and sit ona n empty bench. I felt exhausted. I felt really worned out for some reason like all my energy went somewhere else. I started feeling nauseated. Why? I don't even know what I heard! Did Mike and his Gorilla killed someone? At least tried to?! I shook my head in disbelief because I just knew, all of this sounds so ridiculous and unreal. I tried to comprehend all of that information. That can't be right, I heard something wrong and I made some scenario in my head, I surely misheard."You are being stupid, Jess." I said barely audible to myself. I was looking around me as I tried to calm my nerves. There was just a few people in the park but the weather was nice. Small, sweet breeze was calmly blowing making leaves do a little song of their own. That calmed my mind a little. I noticed small children and I heard their giggles while they run towards their parents. That made me smile! I started feeling
I did it again. I gave in. I have managed to disappoint me one more time. How can I be so weak, just how many times I have to hurt myself with what is so wrong yet it feels so damn good?"Sex isn't supposed to be an answer." I said after I buttoned up the last button on my shirt. He was already done."I know." He simply said, repairing his Rolex."So why are we doing that?" I asked, sitting down. "Do what? I want you. Isn't that enough?" He looked at me puzzled. I was stunned by the fact that he doesn't seem to see the real problem is. "No, Mike. Sometimes it's not." I said standing up. Why am I suddenly feel angry? I am to blame here, I let him manipulate me one more time. He just used that so well! "What is your problem Jessica?" He exclaimed. I backed off a little. "What do you want?" He raised his voice. I narrowed my eyes and sighed deeply. To be honest, I don't know what I want. "I want you. But not just sex. I want the whole package! Conversation, going on a trip, go to par
